How to upgrade weapons in Red Dead Redemption 2

To upgrade your guns in Red Dead Redemption 2, you'll want to head over to the nearest gun store. Once you're there, lock on to the shopkeeper and select 'customize'. From here, you'll be able to choose whichever gun you like and upgrade it.

Upgrades come in various forms, and each of them provides a different bonus to your gun's statistics. Upgraded rifling, for example, makes your gun more effective at an increased range. Meanwhile, iron signs, or even scopes, let you pick out targets more accurately.

Generally speaking, upgrades and other customisation options don't cost much money -- at least not later in the game. As such, you shouldn't worry about buying them up when you can.
